Hi,
I was going on the forums, but I decide to just start a new threat and post my question here. (if you can refer me to the right thread, I'd appreciate it too)
Finally, my cat Gannicus, has received his inhaler. For the last 2 weeks I've been introducing him to the aerokat without the inhaler, it was going super well! He was letting me hold it on his face, and was even jumping up to get his treats when he saw me bring it out.
Now, I have the inhaler. Yesterday I tried the first time with it and he totally freaked out! This morning, the same thing..... I'm so upset... He just jumped away, I couldn't hold it for even two breaths.... and then ran away when he saw the aerokat again.
What can I do? Is he already too scared? How can I help him get used to it? Youtube only shows me calm cats, it's the spray noise and I think the medicine in the chamber that freaked him out..... I want it to work cause I don't want him to have to take steroid pills forever... please advise me. thank you!
